The present invention also relates to the mobile station and the radio base station.
- Heretofore, the "ETWS (Earthquake and Tsunami Warning System)", the "PWS (Public Warning System)", and the like have been known as systems to transmit emergency information to multiple mobile stations.

- In a conventional "ETWS/PWS", however, a radio base station is configured to transmit multiple types of system information (SIB1 to SIB8) repeatedly within a modification period (MP). This causes a problem that, even if detecting occurrence of emergency information, the radio base station cannot make notification of the emergency information in the current modification period MP(n), and cannot transmit the emergency information until the next modification period MP(n+1) starts.
- The present invention has been made in view of the above problem, and has an object to provide an emergency-information receiving method, a mobile station, and a radio base station which allow multiple mobile stations to receive emergency information as quickly as possible upon detection of occurrence of the emergency information.
- A first aspect of the present invention is summarized as an emergency-information receiving method in which a plurality of mobile stations receives emergency information in a mobile communication system in which a radio base station is configured to transmit a plurality of types of system information repeatedly within a modification period to the mobile stations via a broadcast channel, and to notify the mobile stations of a predetermined trigger via the broadcast channel regardless of the modification period, the method including the steps of: (A) starting, at the mobile stations, receiving scheduling-information-notification system information at a current modification period without waiting until a next modification period starts, when detecting the predetermined trigger; and (B) receiving, at the mobile stations, emergency-information-notification system information on the basis of scheduling information notified by the received scheduling-information-notification system information.
- In the first aspect, the emergency-information receiving method can further include a step of: (C) performing, at the mobile stations, processing corresponding to the emergency information notified by the received emergency-information-notification system information.
- A second aspect of the present invention is summarized as a mobile station configured to receive emergency information in a mobile communication system in which a radio base station is configured to transmit a plurality of types of system information repeatedly within a modification period to a plurality of mobile stations via a broadcast channel, and to notify the mobile stations of a predetermined trigger via the broadcast channel regardless of the modification period, the mobile station including: a scheduling-information-notification system information receiver unit configured to start receiving scheduling-information-notification system information at a current modification period without waiting until a next modification period starts, when detecting the predetermined trigger; and an emergency-information-notification system information receiver unit configured to receive emergency-information-notification system information on the basis of scheduling information notified by the received scheduling-information-notification system information.
